Burning a disk image on a CD or DVD
You can use Disk Utility to burn a disk image on a recordable CD or DVD disc. You might do this to make a backup copy of your files, which you can use to restore the files on a hard disk. You can also use CDs and DVDs to move files from one computer to another or send them to other people.
- In Disk Utility, drag the disk image you want to use to the Disk Utility window if the disk image doesn't appear in the list.
- Select the disk image and click Burn.
- Insert a recordable CD or DVD disc into the optical drive of your computer and follow the onscreen instructions.
